Discover the Freedom and Convenience of Contact Lenses

  • Need bifocal or multifocal contacts?
  • Rigid gas permeable or soft lenses?
  • Disposables, dailies or colored contacts?

Contact lenses give wearers a full field of focused vision no matter where you look. Because they move with your eyes, contacts help allow you to track action with sharp and clear peripheral vision. Moreover, if you lead an active lifestyle, contacts provide more freedom and flexibility to enjoy your favorite sports.

A contact lens exam will help us determine the perfect contact lens fit for your eyes and lifestyle!

What to Expect From Your Contact Lens Exam

  • Regular eye exam

    During your comprehensive eye exam your optometrist will check that your eyes are healthy and will test your vision to determine your contact lens prescription.

  • Contact lens consultation

    During your contact lens exam your optometrist will check for dry eye symptoms and consult with you to determine what type of contact lenses are the best fit for your lifestyle and vision needs.

  • Contact lens fitting

    For ideal vision correction and comfort, contact lenses must fit well. Your optometrist will examine the size and shape of your cornea and pupil to ensure the right fit.

  • Contact lens trial and follow-up

    Your optometrist will insert trial lenses and ask you to keep them on for 15-20 minutes to be sure the fit is comfortable and vision is clear. After a few days, you'll come in for a follow-up evaluation.


Where Can I Get a Contact Lens Exam?

The right contact lenses, carefully fitted and prescribed by your optometrist, can provide many benefits and prevent discomfort and eye disease.

Once you have determined the right contact lens, you can start enjoying the benefits and freedom of daily or regular contact lens wear.

We offer contact lens exams at our eye clinic and will help determine the best contact lenses for your needs and eye shape. Simply schedule your appointment by contacting Cascade Eye Care in Longview today.

Contact Lens Exams FAQs

Can dry eye sufferers wear contact lenses?

Usually, yes. While some types of contact lenses can aggravate symptoms of dry eye syndrome, such as eye dryness, redness and irritation, other contacts are perfectly suitable for dry eyes. Speak with an eye doctor near you regarding your dry eye symptoms, and they'll prescribe the perfect contact lenses for ultimate comfort.

Can a child wear contact lenses?

It's a case-by-case basis. Typically, eye doctors don’t prescribe contacts to children under the age of 11 or 12, though there are exceptions. Wearing contact lenses requires responsible care, including cleaning and disinfecting routines. Most teenagers can handle contact lens care if they’re motivated to wear contacts.

Do I need an eye exam and prescription for tinted contact lenses?

Yes! Even if you’re just using contacts to change the color of your eyes, you still need an eye exam and a prescription. Contact lenses are a medical device and require fitting by an eye doctor.

Everyone was so nice to me from the minute I walked in the door! My nurse (I think her name was Kate... ?) Was so kind talking me through all the weird machines and explaining what each one did. My doctor, doctor Badger was quick and to the point but still kind. She did a good job explaining things in a way I could understand. But my favorite part was picking the glasses! I was already stressed before I got there thinking of what pair I wanted and how to pick a pair that would fit me. Bernice, was so sweet and kind and helped me pick a pair I loved. I appreciated her honesty when trying on pairs that wouldn’t go with my face.

~Great experience ~hard to find? I never saw any sign for Cascade Eye Care. I drove past their build... ing, saw 930 on a multi unit building. Parked my car. Right next to suite 930 was 1001?? across parking lot was 928?? ..there was no 950 anywhere......actually, it was behind where I parked, a stand alone beautiful brick building, I saw no numbers or name on building. Update: No one was rude. I knew before I went back my insurance would not cover, I was quoted an amount $. I was advised not to pay right then. The eye glass rep said frames start at 9.00 and I had lots of cost effective choices for lenses. My insurance authorized their portion of my visit before I left, and I was told my portion was $64.00. Paid and all done. No surprises, I knew before exam began my insurance would not cover all of visit. Nice employees here. I opted to do some price comparison checking around, before getting any new frames or lenses.
